(Maitre'D 2003, from Service Pack 5 and later versions of Maitre'D)
Maitre'D supports EFT Gift Cards through DSIClientX with Datacap and Mercury
Payment Systems.
Installing the DSIClientX control
The DSIClientX control is not included in Maitre'D installation. This
application is an XML ActiveX client controlled software that sends encrypted
payment authorization requests via a local area network or Internet to
Datacap's dial and Internet payment servers.
The control is available as a free 5mb self installing executable from
http://www.datacapepay.com/
It may be installed before or after Maitre'D and takes just a minute to
install (requires a reboot).
DO NOT TRY TO SKIP THIS STEP !!!!!
Note: DSIClientX requires Windows 98 or higher.
